And then there is Sarah Palin who remains a giant among giants despite what the Left and Beltway Republicans may say.
More importantly, and ten times as scary for the left, Sarah Palin and Glen Beck are friends.
Just think about that. Worse, think about her other friends, Hannity?, Rush?, Levin? and you say she is washed up?
But, why do these people like her? Because she does what they say? Or, is it because she inspires them? Her most recent book, "America by Heart" is one of the most important "campaign books" of recent memory because it lays out a philosophy and does that by giving us a context for understanding that philosophy and why it is the right one for America.
In the end, Sarah is showing us that she is much more of an intellectual force than anyone is ready to even say. Like Reagan she can boil down an issue into something understandable and make it so regular people get it. This is why the shriek about the use of "blood libel." They were gored by it. She named their evil and it named them, and even as they try to cast it away it burns.
